User Accounts

Set up user accounts and assign a particular role to each user. The user role determines the Web console menu items a user can view or configure.

During OfficeScan server installation, Setup automatically creates a built-in account called "root". Users who log on using the root account can access all menu items. You cannot delete the root account but you can modify account details, such as the password and full name or the account description. If you forget the root account password, contact your support provider for help in resetting the password.

Add custom accounts or Active Directory accounts. All user accounts display on the User Accounts list on the Web console.

OfficeScan user accounts can be used to perform "single sign-on". Single sign-on allows users to access the OfficeScan Web console from the Trend Micro Control Manager console. For details, see the procedure below.

  1. To add a custom or Active Directory account, click Add. To modify a custom account, click the account name.

  2. An account configuration screen appears. See Adding or Modifying a User Account for more information.

  3. To add one or several Active Directory accounts, click Add from Active Directory. See Adding One or Several Active Directory Accounts for more information.

  4. To modify the role for one or several accounts, select the accounts and click Change Role. On the screen that displays, select the new role and click Save.

  5. To enable or disable an account, click the icon under Enable.

  6. To delete an account, select the account and click Delete.

Refer to the Control Manager documentation for the detailed steps.

  1. Create a new user account in Control Manager. When specifying the user name, type the account name that appears on the OfficeScan Web console.

  2. Assign the new account "access" and "configure" rights to the OfficeScan server.
